[Sat 2 Feb 2013] The Bigman Festival

PeterD

ST16 Represent.
'The BiGMAN Festival is an event organised by The BiGMAN Fund in order to raise money and awareness for The Brain Tumour Charity (formerly The Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust). The idea for The BiGMAN Festival originally came about through a combination of offhand comments and a love for music between a group of friends. The name and the charity, however, were chosen to honour the memory of Christopher Ward. In 2011 Chris was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain tumour, Glioblastoma Multiforme. After a 10 month long battle, Chris sadly passed away just short of his 27th birthday. The bands playing and the organisers of The BiGMAN Festival are friends and family of Chris, all brought closer together by this wonderful person who had a great passion for music.

The BiGMAN Festival is a collection of musical, artistic and magical talents all from the Staffordshire area. In true festival fashion there will be alternative entertainments as well as the standard raffle competition found at most fundraising events!'

This is taking place at Stafford Student Union on Saturday 2nd February.

Tickets are now on sale at Guitar & Son and at Mr Simms Olde Sweet Shoppe, Stafford, so head on over there and pick one up. Also available online. http://www.bigmanshop.bigcartel.com/
